    turbo clio

    Mines a last of the line Mk1 (R-Plate), and I think it came with special edition rattles to celebrate the discontinuation of manifacture! LOL Ive got both cars, and apart from the obvious signs of age in the 5s interior, there is not much between them. I think on just the quality of drive I...

    5 Turbo problem..... think its simple!

    Right you go to the car it starts first time. Drive it and get it warm, it wont! Nighmare for petrol stations LOL All ignition lights come on, so its obviousally not battery. As you turn it the final click to fire it up, it just makes a one click noise from the engine and thats it. Eventually...

    17 s on a 1.2 N reg

    Id take the inner plastic arches off at the front and trim your bumper. Think you can lower it a bit too, but expect a VERY bumpy ride! LOL Tim

    Do i really want a NOVA

    If I was going to get a Nova, itd have to be a 2.0l Turbo. Absolute animals if tuned, a real fight just to keep it in a straight line, and an easy scooby killer! Find a company called RJ Automotives website, and their blue nove (around the 270bhp mark) is one of the nicest cars Ive seen...

    -55mm on 15s

    Ideally you would want the front lower than the back for optimum handling. Mines lowered 55mm on the front on 195/45/15s and I have no problems... Tim

    16v Rear Axel

    Right, in the near future idealy I would like to have rear disks on my 1.2 Ph3 Mk1 Clio as part of my master plan.... Im thinking the best (and only?) way to do this would be to fit a 16v rear axel in place of the one I have currently? But what other things would I need, and is this conversion...

    Just drove a Subaru WRX STI!

    Ive never been in, or driven a Scooby that actually felt fast.... OK, they sound great, handle quite well, and the classic can be made to look good (Like my mate Peccys http://www.peccy.comwww.peccy.com) But they are so smooth and boring to drive. No kick, and its certainly NOT an animal...

    14s fit a 16v

    if you see this dont race it!

    "at a guess capable of 12. something 1/4 mile" Craggy Id guess itd be impossible for a FWD car to hit the 12s unless it was immense.. BUT I bet 30-100 (what most races on the road are really) then that Saxo would be pritty much unbeatable! If I was him Id of had bigger than 15" wheels on so...

    is this legal

    Yes, you MUST have a reflector, but I think it can go anywhere on the back of you car? The paint shouldnt rub off if its done right? Tim

    Yeah, was it 2wd or 4wd? You have to be careful with all that power in a 2wd one. I know of a lad who lent his to his bird to goto the shops, she was doing 60 round a bend on a duel carrageway, put her foot slightly on the accelerator, which made it come on boost (must of been in 3rd), it was...

    Door Cards

    What about the back ones? Its a Ph2 Valver, Ive found a crashed one, gonna be having the interior, was gonna take the door cards too... Then a decision, keep the Ph1 interior, or put the Ph2 one in... not sure which to have! Tim
